@Phil Look, I don't want to defend or attack either party and the recent license change is a bit dubious, like Marcus said. But for the sake of argument, I think your conclusion is wrong: he says/wants Spec to be managed as an external library that gets integrated back to Pharo from time to time. When doing so, everything remains MIT licensed. Else he wants it to be GPL-ed so that it cannot be integrated in Pharo. @Esteban But again: if there is a conflict there are always two solutions, solve it or part ways. Saying the other party made me do it is the same as saying I am right and he is wrong (and this goes for both sides ;-) Maybe we should start another thread about this. Because the basic question is not about a license or a name change but about how to work together and about control, specifically for parts and/or developers that are external. I know that this is a complex discussion, but if we in general have problems of working modular than we are in trouble, no ? Sven
